What's wrong with E - save for the appearance of 'it' twice that can still confuse what the subject is. But this seems to me the best fit of the lot.

Doesn't b change the meaning of the sentence by stating that control be given to the students and not the school district?

C not paralell (allowing)

D&E seem to change the meaning by moving the school district after demand.

I picked A also. So would just like to add my 2 cents why A is not correct.
